About this study

Official title: The Effect of Post-surgical Chlorhexidine Mouth Washing on the Sub-gingival Periodontal Microbiome; a Pilot Study

Prospective applicants who conform with inclusion and exclusion criteria will be accepted into the study and sign a consent form.

Visit 1: After initial screening a case report form (CRF) will be filled, including information regarding general health, medication, demographic, oral and dental information. Participants will be clinically examined and the following data will be collected prior to surgery: microbial collection, Plaque score (PS) , probing pocket depth (PPD), bleeding on probing (BOP) at selected non-surgical and surgical teeth. Surgery will be performed followed by discharge with a bottle of chlorhexidine mouthwash and written instructions on its usage. Visit 2: Ten days after surgery sutures will be removed and collected for microbial examination. Microbial collection will be performed at non-surgical and surgical sites. Adverse events will be recorded and participants will be discharged from the study.

Read the detailed description

Microbial identification: periodontal samples will be collected by the GeneFiX™ Saliva DNA Microbiome Collection Device (Isohelix). DNA Extraction - the MagMAX Microbiome Ultra Nucleic Acid Isolation Kits (Termo Fisher). DNA yields and purity - measuring absorbance at 260 nm, A260/A280 and A260/A230 ratios with the Nano-drop 2000 spectrophotometer (Nanodrop products, Wilmigton,USA). Microbiome sequencing - target V4 region of 16s rRNA gene will be sequenced on the Ion Torrent S5 instrument (Thermofisher) and analysis will be performed with the ERGO 2.0 platform ( iGenbio). The investigators will perform comparisons of alpha and beta diversity before and after intervention, as well as differential abundance of the taxa.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • CorsodylDrug

    Also called Chlorhexidine mouthwash

    Corsodyl (a chlorhexidine mouthwash) will be used to rinse the mouth for one minute with 10 ml twice daily during ten days after oral surgery

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. alpha and beta diversity

    sub-gingival microbiome changes between pre- and post- mouthwash usage in non-surgical sites and in surgical sites

    Measured: 10-14 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Periodontitis and Subgingival Plaque, run by Rambam Health Care Campus at 2 sites in Israel.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 7 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 30 Mar 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in Israel. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Liron Eliezer (+972 4 7772983, l_eliezer@rambam.health.gov.il), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

alpha and beta diversity (time frame: 10-14 days). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 30 Mar 2023.
